Python,,,,,,,How can I get the number that repeats the most in four five-digit numbers starting with the first digit?

Question

Example 12345
23455
13451
-------------------
13455

There is any way I can do this on python?

Answer 1

If you're looking for the most common reoccurring digit from a series of multi-digit numbers, one of the simplest ways I can think of is to convert them to a string and concatenate them together. Then use the collections.Counter() class to get the most_common() element as a list of (char, count) tuple and get the char from the tuple.

from collections import Counter

# these lines may change depending
# on how you get your numbers
nums = [12345, 23455, 13451, 13455]
nums = list(map(str, nums))

count = Counter(''.join(nums))
print(count.most_common(1)[0][0])

Hmm you can do it with numpy and many more ways are there but don't think that any one will provide you the code you need to first try for yourself. Share your attempt with us.
